STORY: This date had been eagerly awaited by many. On Friday, Chancellor Olaf Scholz appeared in person at the Bundestag’s Defense Committee. He should answer questions from members on many questions. It was about arms deliveries to Ukraine, the planned special fund for the German armed forces and the possible NATO accession of Finland and Sweden. Scholz was in the committee for an hour. After the meeting, however, opinions differed widely. While some spoke of a constructive and factual atmosphere, other committee members accused Scholz of not answering their questions at all or evasively. Out of anger, some are said to have even left the room. Marcus Faber from the FDP: “Unfortunately, he didn’t take this opportunity. He was asked a lot of questions about Ukraine. He answered very verbosely, but not necessarily richly in content when it came to Ukraine, but more globally when it came to the nutritional situation in the Global South when it comes to China’s role, but nothing specifically about Ukraine. We think it’s a shame that the opportunity wasn’t taken. We have the announcement of a turning point. We’re talking about a special fund, that’s important , that has to happen, hopefully it will too. But what also has to come is concrete, timely support for Ukraine. And unfortunately we haven’t heard any new announcements here. We as Free Democrats regret that.” Agnieszka Brugger from the Greens came to a completely different conclusion: “He described the course of the federal government very transparently, in very, very broad outlines, with all determination and determination to defend our peace order. And they proactively, even with a very, very large number of states in the world to create.” Scholz has promised to come back again, said committee chair Marie-Agnes Strack Zimmermann. To keep in touch with the committee members. And of course also to answer questions.
